Hippos are very rotund animals and are the third largest living land mammals, after elephants and white rhinos, according to Animal Planet. They grow to between 10.8 and 16.5 feet (3.3 to 5 meters) long and up to 5.2 feet (1.6 m) tall at the shoulder. The average female weighs around 3,000 lbs. (1,400 kilograms), while males weigh 3,500 to 9,920 lbs. (1,600 to 4,500 kg), according to the San Diego Zoo.

Noah gathered data at his school among 7th and 8th graders to see if there was an association between grade level and handedness
mash [69]

Answer: 4) 157

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there is no association between the grade level and the andedness, then we should find that the ratio between left handeds and right handed is the same for both grades.

In 7-th grade we have:

Left handed : 11

Right handed: 72

The ratio is 11/72 = 0.14

Then, the ratio for the 8-th graders must be about the same:

Left handed: 24

Right handed: X

Ratio: 24/X

Let's start with the bigger option, X = 157.

24/157 = 0.15

Ok, we now see that with the bigger option we obtained almost the same ratio (if we use the smaller values for X, we will get a ratio bigger than 0.15, so 0.15 is the better aproximation that we can find to the 0.14 of the 7-th graders)

Then the correct option is 4) 157

It is one more than the sum of the first three natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet. Please help
Luda [366]

Answer:

The set of natural numbers is the set of all positive integers, then this set is:

{1, 2, 3, ...}

and the 24th letter of the alphabet is x

Now we want to write the expression given in the sentence "It is one more than the sum of the first three natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"

We can "break" this in parts, so it is easier to understand.

Then:

"...the sum of the first 3 natural numbers..."

is:

1 + 2 + 3

Then:

"...the sum of the first 3 natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"

This can be written as:

(1 + 2 + 3) + x

Now we can analyze the complete sentence:

"It is one more than the sum of the first three natural numbers, followed by the 24th letter of the alphabet"

This is equal to the expression we found above plus one, then we can write this as:

[(1 + 2 + 3) + x] + 1

[6 + x] + 1

6 + x + 1

7 + x
